Hey everyone.

I am offering for sale or trade a heavily upgraded 7500 machine.

The processor has been replaced with an 800 mHz G4 Sonnet daughter card, but the computer thinks it's some sort of 60X running at about 530 mHz.
The only problem with this processor it that it seems to not like the internal video/audio personality card, and every time you try to start the machine, you have to turn it on, then off, then on again. Never has this machine failed to boot on the second try, though.

I will also include the original proc and a sonnet G3/450 daughtercard in case you need them.

The computer is running 9.2.2 with the help of the OS 9 Helper program.

The RAM has been upgraded to a maximum 512 MBs.

The original CD-ROM and 4 GB HD are in there, but I am OK with throwing in a Plextor SCSI CD Writer as well.

Installed as well are a FireWire PCI card and a USB 1.1 PCI card. This leaves one free slot.

This machine is pretty much set to be bumped to Tiger/Panther with XPostFacto. All it needs is a bigger HD.

Cosmetically, it is in very good shape with a few minor marks on the case.

This machine has been a project of mine for the last little while, and I'm kinda losing interest in the home stretch. But I'm telling you, you could get a CF adapter, boot this in Tiger from Flash, attach a few FW HDs, and have a rockin' Web Server or media box.

Something with USB, ADB, FW, and SCSI is hard to find in this day and age...

Anyway, I'd love to trade this for an iPod, preferably an newer one, with a good battery, that is in good shape and maybe comes with speakers or something, but that's not an absolute necessity.

Other trades/cash offers considered, I'll try take some pics if y'all would like...
